  1. Its easier to be a goal kicking mid in Sydney.
  2. Hmmm b& F winner at melbourne gets votes in the teens in Brownlow medal. Stand by for shocking year next year with a de-listing at the end of 2013.....
  3. Scott Thompson played four years for Melbourne. Hardly a bloke that was going home the day he got here.... As for the line 'his family wanted him home'... I just don't know what to say to that,
  4. yep
  5. 1. S MItchell 2. J Kennedy 3. G Ablett 4 J Watson 5 T Cotchin Best Melb player N Jones 9 votes
  6. Is Billings the kid who plays for Scotch?? Absolute gun apparently....
  7. When haven't they? We have always professed to have gotten out first choice at each pick..
  8. Sam Mitchell 179cm Plays OK.
  9. Lloyd is changing his name to Mifsud.... "er, conversation didn't happen your honour...".
  10. Not always. Sometimes its a case of opportunity, Wellingham would likely be a key midfielder for us. He might want to play ,ore time in the middle rather than be a second string to Swan, Beans, Pendlebury etc. You just don't know..... Bate was looking at leaving last year because of opportunity. Will probably go this year because it didn't really happen for him...
  11. I actually believe we as a bottom team get the newer (and therefore likely worse) umpires. Does anyone know whether this is is actually the case? I guess the 'blockbuster' games would get teh more senior umps but we seem have been rogered all year by shiite umpiring.
  12. The problem with your reasoning is that last week THREE umpires adjudged the ball was fully over the line, the goal was signalled and the ball taken back to the centre. Only then did the guy in the booth upstairs intervene and even then by the AFL's own admission it was inconclusive yet they overturned the umpires decision. This Administration is ruining the game with its inconsistencies and meddling. They stuff up pretty much every new thing that is introduced and it rarely makes the game a better spectacle. The umpiring makes the game virtually unwatchable for me.
  13. Well he has gotten a few things wrong. Including his most recent claims against Robert Walls. Fine to outspoken but you want to be right. Which he wasn't.
  14. Roberts can't kick and is lighter than Cale Morton.
  15. My tip is Gary Ayres.
  16. My Geelong mate reckons he can't kick. That doesn't accord with my recollection. Anyone know for sure what his kicking is like?? Can't believe they would entertain bringing in someone who can't kick. We have enough of those already.
  17. Maybe he can teach that to Col Sylvia.
  18. The $cully situation also forced us to look at our whole recruiting structure and set up. It's a big win for us how its turned out,
  19. Is this thread still going? Some ppl must be bored......
  20. That's a bit weird.
  21. Really?? If Cloke stays they can't afford him. Simple. The AFL is littered with examples of players and coaches getting back together again so it isn't preposterous as you would make out. How did we get Clark?? Through Jade Rawlings who had a relationship with him as assistant at Brisbane. Ross Lyon, Zac Dawson is another that rolls off the top of my head. Heffernan and Gary Moorcroft had a relationship with Daniher. Sorry but I couldnt disagree with you more.
  22. Er why? He's OOC and has a relationship with our coach, We have the money. Something I am missing?
  23. Game is unwatchable in the current state of umpiring
